Let the car run till the temp gauge reaches 3/4 on the gauge if the fan doesn't come on replace the bottom coolant temp sensor with two wires going. To it when the engine is cold.Also inspect the inside of. The connector if the terminals are blue or green instead of silver also replace the connector.
